Here is a list of different hens party ideas you may want to include into your special day to make it one to remember! We’ve included ideas for at home parties, as well as ways to get out and about in Perth.
Get a DJ
A DJ is a great way to make any party next level! Get them to line up all the bride-to-be’s favourite tracks and she’ll love you forever! ‘Girls Just Want To Have Fun’ would definitely have to an all time hens party favourite.
Get a Professional Cocktail Mixer
Getting a professional cocktail bartender is the perfect addition to any hens party, as they help to take the work off the host whilst providing delicious drinks for the whole crowd to enjoy. Some cocktail bartenders even set up a ‘cocktail making booth’ where they teach the girls to make all sorts of refreshing beverages.
Get A Photographer or Set Up a Photobooth
Getting some memorable photos of the special night is essential! Try setting up a tripod with a camera facing a backdrop to mimic a photobooth situation. Add a box of different hats, glasses and masks for the girls to take cute and hilarious photos of the night.
The backdrop can even be designed to commemorate the hens night or to fit the theme. This can include a banner to say “_____ hens night”, big curtains for a burlesque theme, a beach backdrop for a tropical theme, and the list goes on. You can even attempt to make or buy a flower or balloon wall for the perfect backdrop!
Polaroid Camera With a Cork Pin Up Board
Another fun and super cute way to remember the night is to buy a polaroid camera and set up a cork pin board so you can pin up your photos as you go. This also ends up being a really nice momento for the hen after the party is finished.
Hire a Bus
There’s nothing better than a party bus with all your girls and your favourite tunes. You can hire a bus to take you between venues, or even just hire one to ride around and party for a couple of hours before dropping everyone back off at the final party house or destination.

Hire a ‘Bucking Wild Willy’
Think bucking bull, but a giant willy. This is always such a great laugh as the girls battle it out to show each other how it’s done!
Themes
Adding a theme to the party always adds a quirky flare to the special day and everyone seems to have a lot of fun with it!
Wine tours
A classic hens party idea and a great opportunity to get out and visit Perth’s Swan Valley. With all the wine and cheese in the world to taste, as well as the nearby Margaret River Chocolate Factory, a wine tour is definitely a recipe for good time.
Games
Games are essential in any great hens night, and will leave the girls talking about it for weeks to come. Check out our long list of hens night games here.
Strippers
A stripper is a great way to make a hens night an unforgettable one and is a lot of fun and laughs for all the guests. Does the hen’s fiancé have a certain career or trade? Get the stripper to dress up in this theme to add some humour to the night!
Topless Waiters
A topless waiter is the perfect addition to making sure your hens night runs smoothly. Topless waiters serve drinks and food, mix cocktails, plan and play games, and make sure all your guests are having a great time and feel included. Remember, they’ve been to many hens nights, and are the perfect resource if you feel like the party isn’t going the way you would like it to. Just tell the topless waiter and they will be able to lift the spirit up and turn things around in a second!
